Elusive Pucara

Posted by Ian Powell on Sat Apr 19, 2003 12:34:38 PM

As someone who has been impressed with the cumulative knowledge on this board I wonder if you can help with a query?

I have been helping an Argentinian historian with info on the airframes that were brought back to the UK after the Falklands conflict. One Pucara A-517 appeared on the UK civil register for a while as G-BLRP and was owned by someone in Witney near Oxford. It was de-registered in 1995.

Does anyone know what has happened to this aircraft? Also did anyone ever get a picture of it in the UK? One source indicates the curent owner may be in the Channel Islands but the aircraft is not there!

Any info on its time in the UK will be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Ian
